The Absent Music label has shown us, in its long journey, by a clear commitment to a typology of music producers, which if something characterizes them, is their irregularity, focused on their search for multiple unstable paths and that, weathering the storm, harvesting successes and incorporating everything that experience gives them, they emerge suddenly with proposals as unique and surprising as their own personal trajectory. They work attentively to detect when it is time to enter the studio with the artists to turn everything upside down…
Now Londoner Willo makes his debut with 01(o), a wonderful work, emotional without urgency, direct but thoughtful. It is a production that when you approach it carefully you are trapped by the halo it gives off. Beats that mark but without burdening us, an oldschool touch (authentic), somewhat eccentric synthesizers and a rather cheerful and festive general tone, are some of the adjectives that we can get out of our sleeves if we want to describe this innovative proposal.
To achieve simplicity and lucidity, paradoxically, experience and the ability to know how to free oneself from the limitation of conditioning are required, and this 01(o) is a healthy example of this.
